Celestyal has confirmed its Arabian Gulf programme for winter 2025 with Celestyal Journey and Celestyal Discovery, starting in December.
Two new seven-night Athens to Jeddah sailings include ports in Egypt (Port Said, Sharm el Sheikh, Safaga) and Turkey (Marmaris or Kusadasi).
Celestyal Journey begins the season with an Abu Dhabi Grand Prix cruise on 6 December 2025, followed by “Desert Days” itineraries. Celestyal Discovery launches three-, four-, and seven-night “Iconic Arabia” cruises from 12 December 2025.
The deployment reflects a 211pc capacity increase compared to the previous year.
John Diorio shared, “Our maiden Arabian Gulf season firmly established Celestyal as a standout in the region, with exceptional feedback from both guests and our trade partners. Listening to that feedback, we’re enhancing our deployment with two new seven-night Athens-to-Jeddah sailings that highlight even more of Egypt’s diverse beauty, calling at Port Said, Sharm el Sheikh, Safaga, plus Marmaris or Kusadasi in Turkey, and Aqaba before concluding in Jeddah.”
